Aviation safety reports, made easier to study

NTSB Reports is an independent research and search tool for public aviation accident and incident records. It brings NTSB aviation reports, structured fields, docket files, extracted figures, photos, videos, and update history into one searchable interface.

The goal is practical safety education: make it faster to find relevant investigations, compare similar events, review factual records, and understand the evidence behind probable-cause and preliminary reports.

The investigative work and source records belong to the National Transportation Safety Board and the published investigation record. This site is not affiliated with or endorsed by the NTSB.

The pilot of the Remos reported while taxing to the run-up area, he misjudged the distance between his left wing and the Cessna that was performing a run-up within the run-up aera. The left wing of the Remos collided with the propeller of the other airplane, resulting in substantial damage to the left wing and aileron. The Cessna sustained minor damage to the propeller. The pilots of both airplanes reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions and failures with the airplanes that would have precluded normal operation.

NTSB Probable Cause

The Remos pilot’s failure to maintain clearance from another airplane while taxiing, which resulted in a ground collision.
